Do female protagonists make horror games scarier?
>>
yes. being a frail woman naturally makes it scarier. imagine playing RE as m bison. there'd be no horror
>>
more horror games should have cripple protagonists desu. imagine trying to survive a resident evil situation when you only have one arm and simply reloading a pistol is awkward.

Death forest 1 and 2 are creepy and the propagonist is a School girl, so yeah.

Female fans of RE and Silent Hill who think they were empowering are stupid and don't realize the reason women are typecast as horror protagonists is because the genre victimizes its protagonist by default.

Cute girls are the only reason that I can play horror games.
Without them, it's too scary.
>>
>>738903773
Heather is not cute.

If there's one thing that folk and fairy tales have taught me it's to NEVER trust kind and/or beautiful women. Ever. Forever.

I hope you're baiting so I post more pics but if you're sincere then you are objectively wrong.

>>738904090
You can trust strippers and hookers to want your money.
>>
>>738898773
I think it's supposed to be more of an empathy thing in theory, like you don't want the cute girl to get hurt, that sort of thing.

Mayu is pure Kino.

Inversions of the concept also have its appeals, yes.
>>
>>738904057
I agree, but Heather starts to become cute after playing for too long. She has a very good evolution on her story.
>>
>>738898773
yes especially in tiny bikinis
>>
>>738898773
I don't know, I don't play as a woman.
>>
>>738907310
I almost exclusively play as women.

>>738907310
A lot of games you're cutting yourself off from to satisfy a stupid personal rule like that, but okay. Like when a game with a male main character suddenly switches to a mandatory section where you have to play as the female sidekick, do you just turn the game off in disgust? lmao
>>
>>738898773
Great game. I'm on my final playthrough right now for the true ending. It really shows you how you can write a strong female protagonist who doesn't have to be a mary sue and stronger than the males.
>>
>>738898773
Yes if there's threat of your character getting raped and impregnated like in >>738899720
Otherwise, no.
